SteamOS is Valve’s Linux-based operating system. It features a seamless user experience optimized for gaming, while retaining access to the power and flexibility of a PC, and plays tens of thousands of games on Steam. SteamOS officially ships on Steam Deck, and will soon ship with certain Legion Go S models. We’re currently working on adding support for more devices.
Does this mean I can install SteamOS on any device?
We expect most SteamOS users to get SteamOS preinstalled on a Steam Deck or device that incorporates SteamOS. The only devices officially supported on SteamOS right now are Steam Deck and Legion Go S.
Lack of official support for a lot of devices does not make it “not released”.
I can get it right now and install it on an AMD 'puter. I expect to manually install some drivers at least to get it fully working, but since the base OS is Arch, that’s pretty explored territory.
No it’s not

Just because it’s not officially supported does not mean it’s released.
And it was released in 2013. This post title doesn’t make much sense.
Steam OS 3 has basically no ties its processors which makes this release meaningful
